On reinspection of a barrier under regulation 147ZG, the swimming pool and spa inspector, if satisfied that progress has been made in bringing the barrier into compliance with the applicable barrier standard, may give a notice in writing to the owner of the land on which the swimming pool or spa is located in accordance with subregulation (2).

Notice under subregulation (1) must—

state that the barrier must be brought into compliance with the applicable barrier standard; and

specify the matters in respect of which the barrier does not comply with the applicable barrier standard; and

specify the date, being not more than 7 days after the owner receives the notice, by which the matters specified in paragraph (b) must be brought into compliance with the applicable barrier standard; and

specify the date and time that the swimming pool and spa inspector proposes to reinspect the barrier to check if it complies with the applicable barrier standard.

The swimming pool and spa inspector must give the notice under subregulation (1) to the owner as soon as practicable after the reinspection of the barrier under regulation 147ZG.

Following the further reinspection of the barrier—

if the swimming pool and spa inspector is satisfied that the barrier complies with the applicable barrier standard, the inspector must issue a certificate of pool and spa barrier compliance and give the certificate to the owner; or

if the swimming pool and spa inspector is not satisfied that the barrier complies with the applicable barrier standard, the inspector must issue a certificate of pool and spa barrier non-compliance.

The swimming pool and spa inspector must issue a certificate of pool and spa barrier non-compliance if the inspector is prevented by the owner from undertaking a further reinspection of the barrier and the date specified under subregulation (2)(c) in the notice under subregulation (1) has passed.
